Top 10 Awesome Fan Signs in Sports

April 10, 2008

Here is your fifth installment of a new column called ‘Top 10 Things In Sports’, a new weekly article that I write. Every time we go to sports games there are always fans holding signs that try to be funny, be offensive, or get themselves on tv. Here is your list of the Top 10 Awesome Fan Signs at live sporting events.

Needless to say, most of these signs probably didn’t get on tv.

#10 The Biggest Idiot Ever

It’s a great sign, but the stupid egg roll one next to it kind of diminishes it. Where he lost points in sitting next to a douche bag, he gained back from use of creativity.

#9 Bench It Like Beckham

This picture is from one of the MLS games that David Beckham sat out last season. I was there so I can say that it was a great game for the MLS, but everyone there didn’t pay sixty bucks to see the MLS, they paid to see David Beckham.

#8 Everyone Hates Duke
I think the title serves this picture just fine.

#7 His Brother is the Dumb One

This sign does it’s job; it’s witty and everyone around the guy is laughing with (at) him.

#6 Killing 2 Birds with 1 Stone

There aren’t many signs out there that effectively insult the men’s and women’s basketball coach at a school in one shot. Nice job, fake afro guy.

#5 It May Not True, But It’s Still Funny

A great sign overall: nice grade-A diss and a thumbs up stamp of approval from the guy on the left. This guy does lose some points on the lack of historical research however; the first woman to graduate from Purdue wasn’t until 1878.

#4 To Sidney Crosby: You Have A Secret Admirer

Well that’s just plain dirty. The five hole is the space between the goal-tender’s legs, if you didn’t know that already… so hopefully you get the joke now…

#3 The Guy Got Ejected

The man needs to get some kind of award for that kind of determination; right behind Isiah Thomas, niiiccee. He got ejected, imagine that. At least the guy got on the cover of The New York Times.

#2 Mangino Is A Big Man

In case you have never seen a picture of Kansas football head coach, Mark Mangino, here is some eye candy for you. I just want to know how this guy got ‘World’s Largest Underwear’ stitched on there. Perhaps he is a fashion major…

#1 Best. Sign. Ever.

This will go down as one of the all-time greats. The element of surprise is executed perfectly and it’s even better because the Indian guy has no idea what’s going on. Good job man, you are truly the king.
